What's New?
  1. This operator version supports Openshift 4.7, 4.8 and 4.9.
  2. Introduction of a new subscription channel version "v3.3" in the operator bundle. This allows users to select the operator version to install from the available subscription channels. If you have an older operator version installed, you can select the "v3.3" subscription channel to upgrade your operator to version 3.3.0.
  3. The operator source codes have been updated to use the Operator SDK v1.2 project layout. There are several notable changes due to this upgrade in the operator and the CASE:
    1. Operator pod now runs manager process in the container.
    2. The operator pod logs formatting has changed slightly for better readability.
  4. Several CASE files in the netcoolIntegrationsOperatorSetup, specifically the ibm-netcool-integrations/inventory/netcoolIntegrationsOperatorSetup/files/op-cli/deploy directory has been renamed following the new Operator SDK v1.2 generated files:
    1. Operator deployment resource file renamed to manager.yaml (formerly operator.yaml)
    2. CustomResourceDefinition files in ibm-netcool-integrations/inventory/netcoolIntegrationsOperatorSetup/files/op-cli/deploy/crds have been renamed to omit the _crd suffix in the filename.
      1. gateways.integrations.noi.ibm.com_cemgateways.yaml
      2. gateways.integrations.noi.ibm.com_jdbcgateways.yaml
      3. gateways.integrations.noi.ibm.com_pulsargateways.yaml
      4. probes.integrations.noi.ibm.com_cemprobes.yaml
      5. probes.integrations.noi.ibm.com_kafkaprobes.yaml
      6. probes.integrations.noi.ibm.com_prometheusprobes.yaml
      7. probes.integrations.noi.ibm.com_pulsarprobes.yaml
    3. CustomResource files in ibm-netcool-integrations/inventory/netcoolIntegrationsOperatorSetup/files/op-cli/deploy/crs have been shortened (the API domain deleted). New files names are:
      1. gateways_v1_jdbcgateway.yaml
      2. gateways_v1_pulsargateway.yaml
      3. gateways_v1beta1_cemgateway.yaml
      4. probes_v1_kafkaprobe.yaml
      5. probes_v1_pulsarprobe.yaml
      6. probes_v1beta1_cemprobe.yaml
      7. probes_v1beta1_prometheusprobe.yaml
  5. The operator now supports All Namespaces install mode when installed by using the Operator Lifecycle Manager. You can now install a single instance of the operator that watches all namespaces in the cluster. This is recommended for fresh installation because there should only be a single instance of the operator running in the cluster. If you have an existing installation, you can opt to continue with the single namespace install mode or you need to uninstall all existing operator and reinstall with the All Namespaces mode to avoid conflict.
  6. Fixed an issue where users upgrading from version 2.0.0 or 2.1.0 doesn't see their operand images upgraded in the pods even when useDefaultOperandImages is set to true. Added several environment variables in the operator pod log to map the images for the operator to update the operand pods.
  7. Cloud Pak Launch CLI script upgraded to v0.11.0 and Cloud Pak Airgap CLI script upgraded to v0.13.4 that brings several improvements and fixes.
